Beyonce was pictured for the first time since she was hit with ‘skin bleaching’ accusations, as she headed out for dinner with husband Jay-Z, Tom Cruise and Henry Cavill.

The singer, 42, tried to go incognito as she was pictured heading inside London private members’ club Oswald’s with her A-list pals. 

She was sporting her recently lightened blonde hair which was partially concealed with a white hood and she wore a pair of dark sunglasses. 

The megastar wore white trousers and boots and completed her look with a mink coat, while her musician husband Jay-Z, 53, wore black tracksuit bottoms, trainers and a large overcoat. 

Tom Cruise, 61, and Henry Cavill, 40, both wore dark suits, with Henry added a plaid tie for good measure.

The outing comes two days after Beyoncé’s mother Tina Knowles furiously struck out at online critics accusing her daughter of lightening her skin in an Instagram video posted Tuesday.

Tina. 69. was responding after some commenters on social media complained that the superstar appeared to have lighter skin and also wore a platinum blond wig in a photo snapped from her appearance at the Renaissance concert film premiere on Saturday.

Some had suggested that the hitmaker ‘was white now,’ while others complained that ‘she’s not a Black woman!’

‘I am sick and tired of people attacking her,’ Knowles wrote in a lengthy caption to the video in which she denied commenters’ concerns.

‘Came across this today and decided to post it after seeing all of the stupid ignorant self, hating racist statements about her, lightening her skin, and wearing platinum hair wanting to be white,’ Knowles began her lengthy caption.

She explained that Beyoncé’s look was solely for her Renaissance documentary, ‘where the whole theme is silver with silver hair, a silver carpet, and suggested silver attire and you bozos decide that she’s trying to be a white woman and is bleaching her skin?’

‘How sad is it that some of her own people continue the stupid narrative with hate and jealousy,’ she seethed. ‘Duh, she wore silver hair to match her silver dress as a fashion statement clown. ALIEN Superstar duh!’

She also castigated Black commenters on social media who had accused her daughter of trying to lighten her skin, calling them ‘bozos.’

‘Lying and faking and acting like you’re so ignorant that you don’t understand That black women have worn platinum hair since the Etta James days,’ she wrote. ‘I just went and looked at all the beautiful talented black celebrities who have worn platinum hair and it has been just about everyone of them at one time or another. Are they all trying to be white?’
